Chapter 118: South Korea Wants to Buy a Horse

According to the memory of Bai Gui Fusion, Korea at that time was not directly bordered by Zhao. To the north of Korea, it is very close to the country of Zhao, but! In the middle is the state of Wei. Or! You have to pass through the small vassal states next to you, and then turn around to Zhao Kingdom.

Later, Korea directly bordered the Zhao State. That was also a matter of the future, and it was only under Bai Gui's reminder that he won it over. At that time, South Korea did not take into account the role of Zhao and did not take into account the benefits of being directly connected with Zhao State.

When the three families were divided, Korea and Zhao were bordered. Afterward! Wei may have taken this into account and cut off the passage between Korea and Zhao. And then later! Korea reached an agreement with the surrounding small vassal states and exchanged a piece of land in order to maintain its border with Zhao.

At that time, the Wei State had the ambition of hegemony, and if it did not cut off the border between Korea and the Zhao State, the Wei State had to borrow the road if it wanted to conquer the dozen or so small vassal states in the land of Huaibei. It must pass through the territory of South Korea, and it must be ventilated with South Korea. South Korea refused to let it pass, which directly hindered Wei's hegemony.

It is precisely for this reason that the relationship between South Korea and Wei has not been able to do well. There is no way! Korea did not dare to offend the Wei State, but the consequence of not offending the Wei State was to lose those small vassal states in the east. So! South Korea is caught in the middle and it is difficult to be a person.

If South Korea can't transport horses back directly from Zhao Guo, it will be very troublesome for South Korea to buy horses.

Passing through Wei to Korea? Even if this relationship is good, Koreans are not at ease. If? After you transported the horse to the boundary of the Wei State, the Wei State directly turned its face and buckled the horse down. With Wei Jun's personality and hegemonic ambition, he can do it.

When the time comes! A big war is about to happen.

And war is a fear for South Korea. A war is waged only as a last resort.

But for Wei, I am afraid that there is no chance of war. He robbed your horses, and if you don't fight, he will rob them for nothing. If you do, that's exactly what he wants. When the time comes! Not only do you lose your horse, but you can also lose your land. After the war, you have to pay reparations!

And the state of Wei! It is to plunder wealth by military hegemony. Fight! Win the battle! It is the way of their Wei State to make a fortune.

Just now! The shopkeeper had already talked to the Korean envoy, and the South Korea wanted a large number of 3,000 horses, but the South Korea itself could not transport the horses there.

The place where Korea borders the state of Zhao was cut off by the state of Wei. And! The state of Wei also stationed a large army in this place. Furthermore! Recently, there has been another conflict between South Korea and Wei, and although there is no saber rattling, it is also irreconcilable. Obviously! It is impossible to pass from the territory of Wei.

So! What about borrowing from the small vassal states in the east?

Obviously! It's hard to do that either! Because! The purpose of the Wei garrison on the border is to send troops at any time, and whoever takes advantage of it will attack whomever he wants. The current Wei State is worried that it can't find a reason to fight

What do you mean by borrowing a horse from Korea to cross the border? Isn't it obvious to you: support South Korea? What do you do when buying horses in South Korea? Isn't it the same for hegemony? Who is South Korea fighting for? It's not to beat you, or to beat our Wei State. You support South Korea, so it's not clear, can't you get along with my Wei country?

So! Wei had a reason to send troops.

At that time, the Wei State, like today's hegemonic countries such as the United States and Little Devils, was looking for faults everywhere, creating contradictions, and finally fighting. Let others be forever impoverished, and they will always be proud......

This is what hegemonic countries have in common!

The purpose of the South Korean envoy wanting to meet with Baekyu is obvious: he just wants Baekyu to find a way for them. Horse! They want it! Price! Also willing to give more. The premise is! You must send me the horse safely.

"In terms of price, we are unified! How much does a horse sell for. But! In terms of shipping costs, not necessarily. I am only responsible for sending the horse out of Zhao Kingdom, and you have to pay for the rest of the expenses! You know! After calling the South Korean secret envoy in, Bai Gui said frankly.

Three thousand horses, not a small number, divided into a dozen batches, can only transport two or three hundred horses at a time. Two or three hundred horses were transported, at least thirty or fifty people. Not only that, but also to prevent accidents.

For example, robbers are robbed on the road, or horses are frightened and run away. Or! It was the place where the horses passed and trampled on the peasants' crops, and a dispute arose.

So! The number of people in a batch of horses is as large as possible. And horses, not more. Too much ostentatiousness will attract the attention of others and cause unnecessary trouble.

Along the way, in addition to the consumption of personnel salaries, there is also the consumption of horses. The horses had to buy feed from the local area to feed the horses all the way. Since it is a fast transport, it is not possible to put horses on the road. Furthermore! Where do you graze hundreds of horses? The local landowners, who are hereditary nobles, don't take the opportunity to find trouble? Even if you have a road from a king or a superior leader, there is always a reason why people want to trouble you.

So! Along the way, you have to buy horse feed to feed the horses.

"This is natural! This is natural! The Korean envoy nodded.

"So be it!" Bai Gui nodded and said: "You pay the money for selling the horse and the freight first, and you just send someone over to pay all the way, it has nothing to do with us!" What about us! Just put people on you. These three thousand horses were shipped out in at least ten batches, three hundred at a time, some more. Just three hundred! Send more people. ”

"White officials? So where are you going to send the horse over? The Korean envoy asked anxiously.

"Hehehe!" Bai Gui smiled and said nothing.

"White officials!?"

Seeing that the Korean secret envoy was in a hurry, Bai Gui smiled and said, "Now! It's not time yet! ”

"Isn't that the time yet?"

"But! You can transport the horse to the designated place first, and then! Wait for the clearance time. ”

"White officials? This? How is this arranged? The South Korean secret envoy was even more anxious when he saw that Bai Guanren was mysterious and secretive.

"Now! The State of Qi and the State of Wei just sent people to blackmail me and asked me to give him the horse for nothing, but I refused. I think? They won't miss this opportunity and will definitely send someone to talk to me.

It was impossible for Qi and Wei to let the other vassal states buy all the horses and equip them in the army. When other people's armies are strong, it will seriously affect their great cause of hegemony in Wei. The same goes for other countries, which have to buy horses and strengthen their armies.

So! I think? Eventually, a peace agreement will be reached. This horse! Everyone's divided! So! Pass through their country, and there will be no disputes......"

Bai Gui analyzed the possible situation.

Right now! The army of Chu has stopped at the border. If Zhao Guo did not allow them to cross the border with the horses they bought, they would have to take advantage of the passage to fight them. So! The state of Chu should be talking with Zhao through diplomatic channels at this time.

Once the state of Chu reached an agreement with the state of Zhao, the purchase of horses was successful. So! Wei and Qi will not be able to sit still, and certain measures will be taken to stop it. Or! Directly involved in buying horses. Or! While talking about buying horses, he prevented Chu Guo and others from buying horses. And then! The whole situation has changed completely.

But! The end result: a successful purchase.

No matter how the situation happens, this horse! You have to buy them all. Otherwise! More than 10,000 horses were bought cheaply by Zhao or any country.

It is impossible for the steppe people to stay for too long when they come to sell horses. After a long time, people will definitely sell it cheaply, sell it and leave.
